There is a short old movie from Dhagpo Kagyu Ling with late Gendun Rinpoche. And in some sequences there is tulku of Sangye Nyenpa Rinpoche, there is written "american tulku". It is in 0.10 sec in this video.
I know that there is one Sangye Nyenpa born in Bhutan. Of course as we know there can be more than one tulku. My question is, where is this "american" Sangye Nyenpa now? Does somebodu know?

Thank a lot

His name is ,Ossian Kennard Maclise. I am not sure whether he was tulku of actual Sangye Nyenpa line or of some other lama named Sangye Nyenpa, in any case, he starred in a documentary "Ossian: American Boy, Tibetan Monk". He did receive some Dharma education and from what I have heard, at the end of 1990s he was working on the translation of Choying Dzo, nothing came of it, or so it seems. Don´t know anything else about him.

The different sūtras in accord with the emptiness
taught by the Sugata are definitive in meaning;
One can understand that all of those Dharmas in
which a sentient being, individual, or person are taught are provisional in meaning.

I guess I should have been more specific, Who are we to judge the enlightened vision of the 16th gyalwang karmapa.

You are because you judged. Your acceptance of this recognition is based in your attachment to the idea that the 16th Karmapa was omniscient. There is absolutely no authority behind your acceptance other than that you believe it, that you decided it was true. No one else decided for you it was true, you decided it was true based on your own conceptual mind.

When Buddhist grow up, they realize that there is no higher authority than their own personal opinion. Even their deference to their gurus is based solely on their own personal opinion.

the 16th Karmapa's omniscience is demonstrably true.

So you are saying that the 16th Karmapa's omniscience is demonstrably try in the same way that it is demonstrably true that two groups of two pebbles added together makes four pebbles and never five?

You are saying that it is demonstrably true the same way evolution can be mathematically proven?

You are saying is demonstrably true in the same way that gravitation is demonstrably true?

How is the 16th Karmapa's omniscience demonstrably true? Really, I am all ears.
